Fruit nutrition: compare foods and portions

Explore ten fruit profiles with edible-weight examples and practical notes about peel, stones, juice and dried products. A fruit count or a bowl size can hide a large difference in weight.

Quick answer

The banana, citrus, mango, kiwi, melon and pineapple records exclude their discarded skins or rinds. The apple and pear references are peeled. Berries use plain-fruit references. Choose a matching entry if you eat a different part or preparation, especially when comparing fiber.

The source is Fineli Release 20.0. The table reports available carbohydrate separately from fiber, rather than US Total Carbohydrate. The values are representative and rounded; use a specific package label when it better matches your food.

Open a food profile

Each profile includes an example portion, the exact source record, food-specific weighing notes and meal ideas.

Use fruit in a meal

Fruit can be a snack, a breakfast component or part of a savory salad. Pair it with other foods according to appetite and preference. Syrup, cream, granola and nut toppings change the complete dish. This extract does not report vitamin C, sugar or other micronutrients.

Make your estimate easier to review

Write down whether the amount is raw, cooked, drained or edible weight. Keep additions such as oil, cheese and sauce with the meal. For a mixed recipe, total the ingredients and divide by the finished yield or reasonably equal servings.

Nutrition values and photo results are estimates. Check ingredients and portions before saving a meal.

Frequently asked questions

Are the amounts in this table recommended portions?

No. The comparison uses 100 g edible weights. Each individual profile also scales an example serving, which illustrates the arithmetic rather than prescribing an amount to eat.

Why might my label differ from this table?

The exact variety, product, preparation, water content and labelling convention can differ. Use a current product label for the packaged food you actually eat.
